WP Help – Tags

Adding the Tag Cloud widget

	In your dashboard, choose Appearance, Widgets, to go to your widgets page.
	Drag and drop the Tag Cloud widget into the sidebar of your choice. If your sidebars are closed, use the triangles at the top right to open them. As you add tags to your blog posts, your tag cloud will grow.

Tags used more frequently will appear in a larger font, so your readers will see what your most popular topics are.

Using Post Tags

When you add a post to your WordPress blog, it is always wise to add the appropriate tags. Use keywords from your post that represent the subject matter.

Ask yourself, “What words would cause a search engine like Google or Yahoo to place my post in the top of its results list?” These are the words that you should use for your tags.Try to make your tags as unique as possible and don’t overdo it. You should never need more than five or six tags.

Using tags wisely will help your blog to get noticed, as they are an important part of Search Engine Optimization, SEO, for your blog.

You can also use Tag Clouds to help your readers find what they are looking for.

Using the Tag Cloud

In addition to being helpful for Search Engine Optimization, tags can help your readers find what they are looking for on your blog. Using a Tag Cloud, like the one on these pages, enables users to find all posts related to a certain topic by clicking on the keyword in your Tag Cloud.

Try it now! Click on one of the words in the Tag Cloud at the bottom of this page to view related posts. The Tag Cloud displays your most popular keywords in a larger font, so your readers can see at a glance what you have been writing about the most. Your Tag Cloud is like a graphical table of contents for your blog.
